LEXINGTON, KY: The Augusta GreenJackets (San Francisco Giants) playoff run ended in disappointment. An incredible 2019 season ended with a 4-2 loss against the Lexington Legends (Kansas City Royals) on Friday night. The Legends took the series 2-0 and they advance to face the Hickory Crawdads (Texas Rangers) in the SAL Championship.

The Legends kept the scoring going in the 4th inning when Nate Eaton ripped a single to make it 3-0. Teng finishes his night after five-innings and he allowed three runs, while striking-out two. The Jackets had an answer though in the 5th inning.
Simon Whiteman delivered with a two-RBI double down the left field line, it put the Jackets down by just a run. Lexington led 3-2 as we went to the 8th inning. The Legends added an insurance run in the 8th inning. A wild pitch gave Lexington a 4-2 lead and for the 2nd consecutive game, Brandon Marklund shut the door.
